I think you need to put some rest days inbetween, and go with a routine, and pick exercies after that for each day to correspond to the muscles.

Beginners Routine
a good starting routine

exercies

There are PLENTY of exercies to do with only dumbbells to hit all muscle groups.

Also, you shouldnt do abs, or any other muscle two days in a row. Always give a muscle an entire day inbetween before you work it agian.
